1. Warm Up Solve the equation. 1. -2 = n + 3 2. -24 = 8x – 5 – 3 3. -3(3m + 3) = 27 4. -3(-3p + 5) –5(3p – 4) = -19 5. -5(12 + 3n) = -(-4 + 11n)

2. answers 1.N = -5 2.X = -2 3.M = -4 4.P = 4 5.N = -16

3. 6.1 Solving Inequalities

4. What is an inequality? What are the inequality signs? An inequality is a statement that shows how two expressions compare, using greater than or less than symbols.

5. Steps for Solving an Inequality 1)Distribute 2)Combine like terms 3)Move the variable to one side 4)Undo addition or subtraction 5)Undo multiplication or division (if mult. or div. by a neg. change sign)

6. Examples Solve. 1)2x + 1 > 13 - 1 -1 2x > 12 2 X > 6 2) 7 – 2t > 21 -7 - 7 -2t > 14 -2 t < -7
